According to the priv spec "Attempting to execute SFENCE.W.INVAL or
SFENCE.INVAL.IR in U-mode raises an illegal-instruction exception." Fix
the current implementation to generate exception.

I am afraid that the bug is already fixed in master by:

    target/riscv: Reject Svinval instructions in U-mode


We now have this macro that is called in all those insns:

/* Test if priv level is M or S. */
#define REQUIRE_PRIV_MS(ctx) do {          \
    if (ctx->priv == PRV_U) {              \
        return false;                      \
    }                                      \
} while (0)


That said, your code is setting virtual exceptions too.  Feel free to re-send
this patch enhancing the REQUIRE_PRIV_MS() macro to do the same.


I'll close the gitlab bug as dup/already fixed.  Thanks,
Daniel
